Workshops



Saturday, October 20th                                           1:30-4:30 PM
Jacob Schwartz, The 2008 Election Results
Jacob reports: Can I
stretch my luck or skill another time? I've had many requests to predict this one, so I'll invest the hours of research required. No more description may be necessary, but those unfamiliar with my 2000 election prediction should perhaps know that I predicted that the 2000 election would go to the electoral college and be decided in December, because of similarities to the 1976 and 1888 elections.

Bruce Scofield,  New Frontiers in Natural Astrology
There are really two kinds of astrology, natural and judicial, the latter being natal, electional and horary astrology. In this workshop we will discuss natural astrology which studies natural processes such as weather, earthquakes, climate, plagues and mass behavior and their geocosmic correspondences. Scientific studies in natural astrology will be considered and some recent work in astro-meteorology will be presented for the first time.

Saturday, March 1st                                            1:00-5:00 PM

Rob Hand, First Steps in Medieval Natal Astrology.
Before one can say anything about a natal chart in medieval natal astrology, there must be a thorough analysis of the condition of every planet in the chart and of the houses that they occupy and rule. This is done by a very systematic method using essential dignities, accidental dignities, receptions, rulerships and relations between what are traditionally called benefics and malefics. The workshop will consist of two parts: a general introduction to the method, and the application of the method to the charts of participants.


Cost: $30 members, $40 non-members

The 90 Degree Dial                                              Thursday Evenings

An introduction to this valuable astrological tool. It could well be the most useful device of all for rectification, but has several other worthwhile applications, such as analyzing solar arcs; synastry; and harmonic analysis. You may not have an occasion to use it every day (unless you are a Uranian astrologer), but when you need it, you really need it. Other types of dials will be briefly described (for experimenters). All equipment needed will be provided. Prerequisite: knowledge of basic astrology.
